Mast wight estimation

Hello Fred, Isomat profile NG46, this might be your's, was used by Hunter 34 and 35. This profile is around 3.1 lbs/per foot. Your mast is 48 foot +- 1 foot. Spreader are around 1.5 lbs per foot. Wire rigging in 3/8"dia is around 0,29 pounds per foot. Make your own calculations and add around 70 pounds for for the furling gear and other accessories. This does not include the booom and sails which I think you should remove. You should come up with a figure around + - 300 lbs with a small safety margin.
